I recently came across this page looking for something like this. Just in case someone comes across this and is interested in only the core user databases, you can use something like this which excludes Master, msdb...

SELECT
DB_NAME(db.database_id) DatabaseName,
(CAST(mfrows.RowSize AS FLOAT)*8)/1024 RowSizeMB,
(CAST(mflog.LogSize AS FLOAT)*8)/1024 LogSizeMB
FROM sys.databases db
LEFT JOIN (SELECT database_id, SUM(size) RowSize FROM sys.master_files WHERE type = 0 GROUP BY database_id, type) mfrows ON mfrows.database_id = db.database_id
LEFT JOIN (SELECT database_id, SUM(size) LogSize FROM sys.master_files WHERE type = 1 GROUP BY database_id, type) mflog ON mflog.database_id = db.database_id
where DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'master'
and DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'msdb'
and DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'model'
and DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'tempdb'
and DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'Northwind'
and DB_NAME(db.database_id) not like 'ReportServer'
order by DB_NAME(db.database_id)
